Throne of Vengeance (ToV):
Throne of Vengeance is now available for purchase!!! 👇
Throne of Vengeance: Volume 1
Amazon.ca
"Oh, but temptation is the wildest intoxication of them all."
Throne of Vengeance is a 2-volume high fantasy narrative following the protagonist, Alan, and his reflections on his inevitable downfall as he becomes entangled in the political and magical conspiracies set out to assassinate the dragon queen, Von Doro. Volume 1 acts as his humble beginnings and showcases how he became so involved with the entire group of thieves, decorated-heroes-turned-mass-murderous-villains, and the 'prince' of their kingdom, as well as plants the seeds of his eventual spiral downwards. Volume 2 showcases the consequences of all his early mistakes and what it means to become no better than the villain he sought to eradicate.
ToV Main Cast: Alan, Caramel, Von Doro, Hilbert, Morreial, Cara, Markum ja, Jervee Iyzela, Jervee Revenold, Amara, Pietro
LotF Series:
"Beauty is not so artificial than it would only exist in one's exterior, but especially not his. For when I say all the gold in the Singer Palace paled in comparison to the only one that fluttered, one gaze into those divine eyes, and you too would be awestruck at how such gentle loveliness could exist."
The LotF Series is the spin-off series to ToV, following the next generation-- the children of the main cast-- as they enter this new age of supposed peace.
CoS: After the young Evan accidentally becomes an accomplice to a horrific crime, he becomes the scapegoat to a ruthless conviction, that too, at the hands of his own parents. Upon his return to society, the story follows his journey in navigating strained family dynamics and the burdens of trauma he is forced to conceal.
GotN: Reveal in future...
EoJ: Reveal in future...
MotT: Reveal in future...
SoC: Reveal in future...
LotF: Reveal in future...
"Oh. I'm honoured. But bowing isn't how you show me your devotion... Sacrifice is."
She's still very much in the drafts right now, but the CoE is a spin-off to the LotF series, set in the world of Elayza 5 years post-SoC war. It's a pirate-mythology story following 3 main characters and 2 separate storylines that eventually converge when divine forces begin interfering with mortal battles. There are 7 books planned for this series, all of which I have already made covers for and plots I have already outlined. Oopsies lmao.
"Roy has attacked our esteem--our honour. And now, they will learn. Roy will fall."
I've been pretty vague about this one, mainly because it's also in the drafts for now, but the TIS is a high political fantasy mystery series following the kingdom of Liyana, its rise to becoming the superpower nation of the world of Inkarnyus, its bloody role in both the first Inkarnyus wars, and its inevitable role in starting the second.
Main Cast: Naliya Luceras, Kiamu TIvan, Selven Sarcony, Blaire Wynnen, Amaka Luceras, Zeena Luceras, Shadow, Fiona Desai, Ashley Valencia, Vrankensini Stein, Prince James, Alexander Marine, Jade Esterion, The One
AoNaS:
Also currently in the drafts, but the AoNaS is unique in how its my only middle-grade series. It follows the twin Ghotra sisters as they find themselves transported into an abstract, illlusionary world with mysterious powers. In order to return back to life as they know it, they have to discover the original hosts for these abilities, but things don't go as planned when they realize their new powers have made them the target to the dictator of this new world.
Honestly, this is one of the more lighthearted, for gaffs, stories I've written. The narrator is hilariously theatrical. The villains are whole comic book characters. The twin sisters are constantly bickering. Its so early 2010s, I love it.
Main Cast: Neha Ghotra, Serina Ghotra, Forys, Zebratron (yes... i know LMAO), Typhareus, Octopious (I'm not even joking with these names), Squally, Therysea

I hope you enjoy this masterpost! Enjoy the blog! Enjoy the wips! Enjoy the vibes! If you have any questions, leave a comment, post in the ToV community, or @ me!
really love a corruption arc where the character is trying way too hard to make it work but they're in over their head and it's uncomfortable and embarrassing and they're swallowing their own puke every time they do something awful and damp with sweat and trembling but insistent that they can do this, they want it, they're not a child, but it's like they're playing dressup in clothes that are too big for them and trying to convince their own reflection in the mirror that they fit and it's just no fun to watch at all
+ then they find inside them a capacity for cruelty far more upsettingly vicious than anyone could have imagined and decide that because they enjoy how unafraid it makes them feel for the first time in as long as they can remember it must have been their true nature all along instead of something that had to be starved in the dark until it grew desperate enough to claw its way out 🙂↕️
i dont really think so for evan tbh. i think evan recognized that inner force and rather than try to deny or suppress it like alan does, he immediately books himself a therapy session
every nolan film is about time. it winds its way through his filmography; it is fractured in memento, distorted in inception, expanded in interstellar, reversed in tenet.
every hopper painting is about stillness. it is found in every brushstroke; at dusk in automat, at dawn in morning sun, at noon in office in a small city, at night in nighthawks.
i have a friend who orbits ideas of power, another who delights in the prosaic and the plain. one weaves around systems and structures, another returns always to wonder at the sea.
there are other elements of course - our lives cannot be measured by single concepts no matter how large they may be - but time and again i think we return to the things that fascinate, the things that intrigue, the things we cannot quite tear ourselves away from. the themes of our lives.
What that means is I will be active for the hour, hopping into ask boxes with followup questions as I am able, while encouraging you to do the same.
Answering the questions tells me you are cool with this.
You may answer all questions via reblog, reply, hopping in my askbox or even reposting. Just remember the #writeblr and #writeblr live tags if reblogging/reposting so we can find ya.

i saw a couple mutuals do this and it seems fun, so hi!
my name is naveena, comfy, whatever you wanna call me honestly (within limits). my main series right now is the tov extended series, which includes the completed and published tov duology (throne of vengeance // “tov,” and scarlet and ice // “sai”), as well as the lotf series (“light of the flame series”). since the lotf series isnt published yet, im not spoiling any book names for anyone who doesnt already know them ;)
i also have another series colloquially called “tis”. its an acronym, but thats a secret ✌️👾
ANYWHO! all my series listed above are completely different styles of high political fantasy. tov is more old-timey, inspired by south-asian cultures (so not very medieval-esque), and focuses on generational trauma and the impact of a societal disaster, the repetition of history, and the cycles of pain and healing that occur when intercultural conflict results in inherited resentment.
meanwhile, tis focuses more on the politics and the layers of corruption that occur within a society that is desperate to gain control over the future by erasing the past and oppressing the present.
my favourite time to write is early morning or late at night. so long as its not afternoon or evening basically lol.

i love fics that feel so... grown. fics about adults that were written by adults who have years of life experience under their belts who pour that into their writing. fics where you can tell this is a person who has lived through a marriage or a divorce or a child or children or parent death or any number of Huge Life Events because the way they write with an emphasis on the highs and lows of the human experience rather than an emphasis on tropes (not throwing shade) is just so. oh man, it's just so fucking good. if my blorbos are grown men, grown women, grown people, i love it when they feel like grown people, not just extensions of the (young) author's imagination. (still not throwing shade). you know?
The way you get more fics like this, by the way, is by encouraging younger and beginning writers. Everyone starts somewhere, and if you want the beautiful, lived-in, wealth of experience that comes with age authors, they generally need to first be the eager, silly, excited just to be here, more enthusiastic than skilled authors, and then they need to not get driven away from fandom by people being jerks to them or by the weariness of putting out effort and not getting anything back. So yes, appreciate the older authors who bring their experience to the table of the fic buffet, but don't neglect the budding authors who are just starting to grow. That's like wanting the fruit from the tree without watering the sapling.
the main character of the tov series isnt alan. its not caramel. its not even evan. its none of them. it never has been. and thats why i love this series
If you had to explain The one's personality in only a paragraph how would you do it?
the one is a calculating, ambitious, bigoted woman who fundamentally believes that in order to rise above subjugation, one must be capable of subjugating others. that purity of the interior is reflected on the exterior, but some people are born without any merits and therefore can never earn the merits or respect of others. that only purity and power, intrinsic qualities to a person, can determine their worth, and all people must act in accordance to their worth and value to society for this world to reach a point of absolute equilibrium. to achieve balance, there must be order. and for there to be order, there must be hierarchy. suffering is the natural byproduct of success, and the one is a woman who intends on achieving as much success as her preordained purity allots her, no matter the cost to others. because what does it matter really—the worthless have nothing of value to lose.
BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! Once you are given this award you're supposed to paste it in the asks of 8 people who deserve it. If you break the chain nothing happens, but it's sweet to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out <333
i wish i could show you as much kindness and love as you all show me <3 i can never appreciate you all enough
the main character of the tov series isnt alan. its not caramel. its not even evan. its none of them. it never has been. and thats why i love this series
hi wyked <3 thank you for the ask. i lowkey got geeked out when i read it lol
ill keep it brief to avoid yapping. but if evan met the first von doro, he would lower himself into a bow, like all proper khos jas do, and then spit at the ground and look up with tired, resentful eyes, before asking, “why?”
